Dark Is The Way, Lights is a Place cover
07. The Art of War
Album: Dark Is The Way, Lights is a Place
Artist: Anberlin
         
 

Am I the latest,
In your art of war?
Thought your hands could heal,
But they left me sore.

You’re so good, at what you think you do to me.
You’re so good, at what you think you do to me.

There are songs I’ll never write
Because of you walking out of my life.
There are words that don’t belong.
Because of you I’ll never write another love song.

Was I the greatest
In your arsenal?
Or just the latest
In your art of war?

You’re no good, at what you said you’d do to me.
You’re no good, at what you said you’d do to me.

There are songs (There are songs) I’ll never write
Because of you walking out of my life.
There are words (There are words) that don’t belong. (Ooo-ooo)
Because of you I’ll never write another love song.
(Never write another love song.)

There are songs (There are songs) I’ll never write,
Because of you walking out of my life.
There are words (There are words) that don’t belong. (Ooo-ooo)
Because of you I’ll never write another love song.
(Never write another love song.)

There are songs I’ll never write
Because of you walking out of my life.
There are words that don’t belong.
Because of you I’ll never write another love song.



Behind the Song:
"Relationships are tough, all of them; friendships, marriage, significant others, etc. They will always be tough, we are all imperfect humans on a never ending quest for love.

When one person in the relationship starts to play games, or get ahead of the other through guilt trips or any other number of mind games then the relationship will cease to progress. It is frustrating when people try to gain the upper hand, instead we should try humility and hold fast to unconditional love.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

The Book by Sun Tzu is an absolute must read (Art of War)

Your Arsenal is a Morrissey record." - Stephen Christian
